Print tips
- Print at "actual size" or 100%, not "fit to page", so the margins stay even.
- Use thicker paper or card (160gsm or more) if the sign will be handled.
- For outdoor or long-term use, laminate it or buy a rigid version.
Where to use it
- Directly above or beside a manual call point on a wall
- Next to the fire alarm control panel
- At exits and stairs where call points are mounted
- Reception or a noticeboard, for the weekly test day and time
- Temporary notice while an engineer tests the alarm
Questions
What does the fire alarm call point sign show?
It marks the box people press or break to raise the alarm. Ours uses the red fire-equipment colours and a white call point symbol.
How often should a fire alarm be tested?
Your fire risk assessment or alarm maintenance provider sets the testing schedule.
Do I need the 'test in progress' sign?
It is a courtesy notice so people do not worry when the alarm sounds briefly during a planned test. Whether you use it is up to you.
